Common system resource error messages

When system limits are exceeded, the operating system advises
you by displaying messages on the console.
Some of the messages are advisory only.
Others precede a system panic: the system displays some additional
diagnostic messages and then ``hangs,'' requiring you to reboot.

If you are running X, these messages may not appear on your console.
If your system hangs, switch to the console multiscreen
by pressing <Ctrl><Alt><F1>, if possible,
and read the diagnostic messages.
If you cannot switch multiscreens, reboot the system
and read the messages in the /usr/adm/messages
and /usr/adm/syslog files.

Kernel error messages that appear while running this product are
similar to this:

CONFIG:routine- Out of streams (NSTREAM =nexceeded)

routine is the kernel routine that requested a stream or
queue, but did not allocate one and n is a decimal number
indicating the current value of the parameter setting.
For information on modifying NSTREAM and other
kernel parameters, and on relinking the kernel, see
``Configuring kernel parameters''
and the
configure(ADM)
manual page.

For detailed information on
modifying kernel tuning parameters, see
``Configuring kernel parameters''.
